Here Be Dragons v0.5

Here Be Dragons is a humorous turn-based strategy game that puts you in command of a group of eccentric, unhinged captains. Your mission? To hunt down legendary sea monsters and clear the way for Christopher Columbus to "discover" the New World. But don’t be fooled by the familiar historical tale—this game suggests that the true story of those fabled expeditions is full of wild, forgotten adventures that never made it into the history books.

In this reimagined past, Columbus didn’t just sail with a handful of brave men and a few ships. Instead, a team of crazy, battle-hardened misfits was dispatched to tackle the real nightmares of the deep. You’ll face off against terrifying creatures like krakens, leviathans, and even seductive mermaids, as well as other mythical beings that lurk in the uncharted waters of a living, animated map.

Gameplay centers around an innovative Dice Activation System that lets you launch attacks, heal your crew, and upgrade your fleet with each roll. Along the way, you’ll collect special resources like Ink and Errata, which can be used strategically to alter the course of battle. Every encounter across the dynamic, ever-changing seas is a test of both tactical skill and a willingness to embrace the absurd.

The game doesn’t take itself too seriously either. It revels in satire, featuring a cast of bizarre characters whose eccentricities drive the narrative. You’ll find yourself clashing not only with monstrous sea beasts but also with an outlandish bureaucracy and pompous royal advisors. In Here Be Dragons, you’re not just a leader; you’re the ultimate monster hunter navigating a world where insanity is part of the job description.
